12 Weeks
As my maternity leave is coming closer to a close, the amount of guilt that has plagued me recently has been so real. It has become an emotional time coming to terms with the fact that I have to leave my baby. It is excruciatingly difficult. What I have reminded myself is that she will be ok and I will be able to provide for us both by going back to work. She will be ok. I am so in love with her, so in love with being a mom, so in love with having her in my life. I've never known love like this. She is the greatest gift. Nothing else will ever match it either. No one would ever come close to the amount of joy she has given me. ...I wish I could take her to work with me.
